Q: Best Ways to Get Over a a Relationship

I recently was involved in a relationship that came to an end after a year and 8 months...I'm starting to get over her but then someone always manages to say, "oh yeah I saw so and so with her yesterday" and I can't help but think about it....Someone help!

I have been in that same situation with my ex of 3 years. We started dating when I was 15 all the way until I was 18. We would break up and I would get so jealous it would make me sick, I would stop eating for days. And now that I am 18, and we have been broken up for 8 months and I have been dating someone else for 6 months. I look back now and I think to myself "what was I ever thinking". You can only learn from a realationship.. Take what you have learned and put it towards your next one. You are going to date a lot of people in your life before you find who you will marry. You just need to forget about it, do not think about her, no matter how hard it is. And whatever you do do not call her, that will make her think you care. If a girl knows she has a guy upset then that is just fuel to her fire. If she knows she is getting to you, and by going out with other guys is upsetting you, she will keep doing it. I am a girl just believe me. The more you act like you do not care, the more she will.

I just broke up about 4 days ago as well. I too would get jealous if he found someone else even if we were an on and off couple. The thing is, I know what a great guy he can be. But other times, he's completely clueless to my own feelings and needs. Things seem like they don't or won't last for long if I even continued, and each day just seemed like I was getting more frustrated and angry. I know he is a great guy and all, and I hope we can be friends. But I know I will be just a bit jealous if he finds someone else who makes him happy. The thing is to be happy for them. If the relationship wasn't working, then maybe it's a better opportunity to meet the person who will treat you right, and will fufill and reaffirm your feelings in return.

Seriously, the best thing to do hun is just to cry it out..You're hurting inside so why keep it inside? Trust me..I broke up with a guy of about 2 years & I balled for a few days...Spend lots of time with my best friend...You will never get over it, I still cry about this guy every once in awhile and think what things would be like if I was still with him or what hes doing and who hes with...But seriously the best thing to do is remember the memories and cry it out..Keeping it inside isn't going to help any...Every night when you go to sleep it's still going to be there...Good luck though!!

Be Strong
It's tough I'm right there with you trust me. It hurts you to the bones. I know though that it gets easier. This is the third time for myself. Find a hobby. I picked up the guitar.

don't worry that much because it's pretty normal to have such reaction espcially that it's still fresh. You have to address what you feel right now and entertain it. After all, a year and 8 months is quite a long time. If you truly had feelings for him, then you would feel such. It reaffirms your feeling that you really loved her.

Now, how do you cope up with it? Let it be. You can't do anything about it for now. You don't have any hold of her any longer for you're not an item. If you can cry it out, go on right ahead. It does help rather than keeping it inside. Let it out. It's like a therapy to help you with the loss. Soon enough you'd feel a little better. Then you can start looking for a girl.

Make a constant effort to give yourself some time to heal from the loss. And someday, even if you see her with a million men, you can say to youreself, "I DON'T GIVE A DAMN!!" Laughing
